Green really needs some kind of evasion ability to make its power pumping matter and red is getting some good pump nowdays, too.
Trample....?
Well, trample is kind of evasion, but it doesn't get around things like deathtouch and is a hell of a lot less useful at small sizes than "can't be blocked by creatures with less power."
Anyone else interested in the fact that some of those sound like Enchantments that flip?
Skin Invasion and Autumnul Gloom don't sound like creatures.
(And I can't believe that the pun "Uninvited Geist" made it through names and flavor text. Yes! And I hope Investigate shows up in Blue, because gosh darn it, I want Blue's Clues.)
EDIT: Just thought about it, looks like Skulk could be the U/B Combat Keyword that design's been looking for. Given the most recent printing of said ability was Silumgar Assassin. I expect we'll get some announcement of its "evergreen" status with the official mechanics reveal. Just speculation, but not, I feel, baseless.

Seems legit, but it still can be creatures (Skin Invasion for Worm or Insect, for example (remember Murder of Crows?) and Gloom can be... uh, Spirit?)
Btw, I'd like to see two-faced enchentments too.

I don't know that Murder of Crows counts because...well, that's what you call a group of crows together.
But yeah, I could also see them being creatures, it just feels less likely. It feels like they'd use Invaders in the case of Skin Invasion, and Gloom tends to have something attached when it's a creature (Gloomhunter, Gloomwidow, Gloom Surgeon), but it could just as well be a creature.
Just feels like, since we had mostly creatures last time, it's exploring the additional design space they keep mentioning flip cards as having.

I'm quite sure murder is just a regular collective noun describing a group of crows. All dictionary definitions of invasion boil down to "an act of invading", so I think Skin Invasion being an enchantment is a given.

Agreed. While calling a group of anything a murder sounds weird, it is technically correct for crows. Autumnal Gloom and Skin Invasion sound much more like the names for enchantments. Also, is there anything telling us for certain this is the only checklist card? It is full, so isn't it also possible that there's another checklist card that has multicolored stuff on it? Or am I missing something?

If it follows old Innistrad Rules, yes, that's everything. The point of the checklist card was so that each pack (which came with a double-faced card), had a variant that had a standard Magic back, allowing for people without sleeves to have something to draw without...ya know, cheating.
If there's more than one card, they have to either shove an extra card into the pack, which they've said they cannot currently do, or have it randomized, which defeats the purpose of the checklist card.
The cards can be multicolored on the backside, we don't know yet. But even in the original Innistrad, we didn't see a card that was multicolor on the front until Dark Ascension, and we only saw one.

In what universe? If you build a deck like that, and ever draw that hand, I will personally come to wherever you live, perform complicated acts of awestruck ********, then disembowel myself to escape the world that allowed something like this to occur and validate you.
Nahiri being a villlian is toatally out of the blue, but interesting.
I would hate to see Eldrazi on Innistrad, it's flavor is too good and rich already to vandalize it with a lame crossover like that. But with the way WotC handle things lately we can't have nice things and there probably would indeed be Eldrazi.

I don't think he is(anymore). This is a new Sarkhan all together. Old Sarkhan was more affiliated with Mardu and wished for dragons, which made him travel to Jund where he met Ajani Goldmane. Then later he became a slave to Bolas. This "NEW" Sarkhan was never affiliated with Mardu, and probably never traveled to Jund because dragons always existed on Tarkir and was never made as slave. This makes a paradox in a way due to
1. Was the time alteration only effected on Tarkir.
2. Did the time steam auto correct its self afterward and old Sarkhan never existed. If so is Ajani still on jund and was Sarkhan never at the eye to ugin to unlock the edrazi.
3. There are two Sarkhans wandering the multiverse. Time travel sucks.
Exactly my point. How did the Eldrazi get released then if Sarkhan never went to Jund? It must've been released by Chandra and Jace. Yet where was Nahiri in all this?

This is not a "new" Sarkhan. He still grew up in the Mardu, he still went to Jund, he still became a slave to Bolas. Basically, the old timeline existed unchanged until the very moment when Sarkhan went back in time. If a planeswalker had gone to Tarkir the day before. left and came back a day later, they would have seen two completely different Tarkirs.
I think the whole issue with flip Jace could've been solved if he flipped when 'five or more instant and/or sorcories' in the yard. All the other flipwalkers have more specific triggers, even Lilliana takes work. Jace triggering off Any five cards puts him over the top.
I'm really hoping that, given the card types in graveyards matter setup and that it's a horror themed plane, that Mr McGoyf is finally reprinted in a scalable fashion and we can end the abject stupidity that is $600 playsets of an undercosted beatstick.
That said, my guess is that if we don't get a reprint we won't get something similar, as others said, to avoid Goyf 5-8.
There is a small part of me, though, that thinks this could be an interesting juxtaposition.

1: it's entirely reasonable to have flip enchantment. The first INN block had a creature that flipped into an enchantment (I forget it's name off hand.)
2: Skulk is not the keyword they've been looking for as thethey've specifically been looking for a non-evasion combat keyword.
3: Why are you people arguing about Sarkhan? Allow me to settle it. The guy that spoke to Ugin at the Haven, who found Narset searching for Ugin in DTK Tarkir is the same person who helped Ajani in Jund and lurked in the Eye of Ugin in Zendikar. The exact same individual. Not some time travel redo, the exact same person.
No. That's just you.

To be fair it is possible that one of those cards flips into a card of another color, which would be multicolor.

The most ironic is probably the Kind Stranger, with his black mana cost you can see where it goes.
It would make sense to finally see The Raven Man be it in the first set or the second
